The entire group is in awe, not only of the achievements, but their rewards. They gained an entire extra level, as much as they did from the Iron Man quest completion.

"Dark Shuriken is pretty awesome." Elmira calls out, sending a wave of them across the room. "It creates up to twenty of them at a time and they do more damage than any of my other spells."

That makes sense, none of her other spells are Rank A. Another A Ranked spell in their group should be a noticeable damage increase, especially with the Magic Damage Aura that the Pixie has, and the Fae damage increase on bleeding targets from Cain's bow. At this point, adding warrior classes would actually be a loss, and the aura is one of the biggest reasons Cain hasn't switched the Dark Nymphs, who do Magic damage, for something more versatile.

Well, that and the fact they're kind of cute in their own way.

Char tries out [Earth's Wrath] and it creates a zone of pelting stones that lasts almost 30 seconds. While she's got the Rank S Channeled lightning as her main single target damage, this lasts longer than most of their fights, so it won't be a hindrance at all to cast at the start.

With all three damage dealers now having both a long duration area damage and a solid single target attack they're in very good shape. Mythryll's constant use of her Demonic Transformation Spell has gotten it to Level 4 of 5, one more and it will get the big bonus for a fully mastered skill. Each level has reduced the cooldown time, so she's hoping that at the final level she will be able to just keep it active the whole dungeon.

Learned Skills upgrade with use, while class skills upgrade with points for the basic classes. Since most classes only get a single skill every 10 levels at the most, the book skills are essential to make well rounded characters. A level 50 warrior with only Chop, Stomp, Slam, and Shield Bash isn't much of a warrior after all.

The extra Dark Damage the Demonic Transformation grants makes Mythryll's Vine Whip spell into a very effective single target attack, and the bonus applies to the attacks of her clones too.

Most of the party gained not just one level from this raid, but three. Cain takes a moment to look over his status before they head back to the Guild House to plan tonight's extra special party. If his calculation is right, not just him and Misha, but Elmira and Mythryll also should have made level 60 with the quest rewards at the end of the dungeon.

[Summon Supporter] Lv1

Summons one human or demihuman Supporter from a basic or recorded profile.

There's a long list of options, it appears that every seemingly failed attempt was still recorded, waiting for use. All the basic race and class options, the Dark Elves he tried to record and many others. They should now have a flexible option for almost any situation.

"I got a Holy Lance!" Misha laughs. "That's three, count them, THREE attack options for me now."

She links the spell description for them all to read.

[Holy Lance] lv1

Does 90 light type magic damage to a single target.

"That's pretty good." Mythryll says, looking it over. If you use some of the points from your new levels to raise it up you should be able to do decent single target damage, as well as your Consecrated Ground area damage spell.

"I'm not sure about putting points into something other than Healing though." Misha sighs. "I am the only Healer after all."

"I could use the supporters to heal. I'm not sure if we can equip them, or how good they are though."

"Make one with fluffy ears." Char smiles and Mythryll nods her head rapidly.

Cain goes through the options and finds Catfolk Priestess as an option, one of the basic classes any transfer could have picked. They've yet to see one though, so maybe they start in a different zone, like the Fae races do?

A pair of identical Supporters appear, Level 62, in plain white Priestess Robes. They're both Calico patterned with furry, cat like faces and long tails. They've got the desired cat ears though. Cain notices Beast Kin is also an option, but he won't get to pick and customize appearance for the Supporters. There's a Werewolf race option too.

Cain missed out on so many parts of the character creation by simply picking random that he almost feels stupid for not at least looking first.

There is no option to gear them like with Vala, they simply have what they have. In this case starter gear. Cain decides to experiment later and see if the ones he recorded appear as they were found. With that in mind, he tries to copy Misha, something that never occurred to him before.

[Supporter Form Added]

So that means beyond the basic human cleric, he can copy something more about the transfers he meets. That's a good sign he can Summon Supporters with better gear.

They're not saying anything, so Cain gives an order. "Heal everyone to full." He commands them with a thought and they both cast area heals. They're roughly half the healing each that Misha is, so they are definitely in basic starter gear.

"Oh, that startled me." Char jumps back from petting their heads.

"Sorry, I wanted to see their reactions. They don't speak as far as I can tell, and they just follow orders, they're not as interactive as Vala here, at least not at level 1 of the spell." Cain explains.

The Vala twins are poking them in curiosity, circling around to get a better look, much like Char is doing now.

"Try another form, see if it's just because of the basic class template maybe?" Misha suggests, so Cain summons Dark Elf Clerics, with their black, cobweb pattern dresses and staves. They show up exactly as expected and look around, taking in the situation, but also don't speak. And they were constantly swearing at the group before.

"Hello." Mythryll smiles and waves at them, but they only respond with a basic nod.

"I guess they're going to need upgrading." Misha shrugs. "Can you do that now? Or do you need points?"

"My spells only upgrade with level increases, going by the description, level 70 gives me another Supporter and level 80 makes them advanced Supporters. Beyond that I don't know. My Greater Golems got a damage and durability increase this level though." Cain elaborates and Char frowns.

"That's a bit inconvenient, but as broken as your class is, it makes sense." Elmira giggles fluttering around his head.

"We should head back to the house. I'm sure everyone else is eager to know how the day went. And we need to order a LOT of cake." Char laughs and waves them back towards the exit.
